Nov. 2016 - May. 2018BrisbaneWith the launch of the Joanne Brooks brand comes the expertise I’ve accumulated over the last 30 years to bringing together education, finance, connections and strategy for all my stakeholders. Blended in with this is a very spiritual piece which essentially means I’m launching this business first and foremost for me and a close second for my clients and connections. I’ve very much learnt that I must focus on me from a perspective of health, wealth and values. This excites me no end as I am now finally working in a space I love; as I know when I’m in this space it simply naturally flows for all those I connect with. This is also a place where I am driven to give my clients my undivided attention enabling me to gain a clear understanding of that they need not what I want to sell! If I can’t deliver there’s a very good chance I know someone who can. It’s this added dimension that thrills me as connecting people creates a whole other level of satisfaction for me. My ideal clients is: -
• Small to medium businesses with turnover up to $35m • Individuals who are keen to improve their career opportunities & personal estate • Individuals & business owners who are seeking a “seamless finance” transaction • Mortgage Brokers who are keen to diversify their business • Small to medium business owners who are keen to take their business to the next level
• Professionals in the accountancy sector where I know I can provide significant value add to their clients I’d love to connect with you, so reach out via LinkedIn or joanne@joannebrooks.net and let’s see where this goes!
